Broadway Laughs #9
Broadway Laughs #9 is an anthology of single-panel and multi-panel gag comics featuring various humorous scenarios. Among the visible stories are a joke about knowledge of classical composer Brahms, "The Cocktail Shaker," which depicts a man and woman being violently shaken by cocktails after she requests a drink, and an untitled piece in which a couple on a dinner date ends their relationship when the woman requests separate checks. The issue collects quick comedic vignettes typical of mid-century humor magazines aimed at adult readers.
